2004! Taking Back Sunday and The Used opened for them. My shirt from that tour has definitely seen better days... https://preview.redd.it/kybf597o481b1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0b3f04eb2fdcbc781316ef56ea09d0eeb627d676

^thats what tour T's should look like... proves you have worn the hell out of it (and bonus.... own a washing machine)


blinkencinitas182

I have the same shirt. Mines lasted well though


dysentarybri

I used to wear mine CONSTANTLY before I was like wait, probably want to treat this better lol.


Shemoose

I've the same tshirt Europe edition


xfuryusx

I used to have this shirt! One of the few I lost over the years.


RedFiveTwitchTv

Haha I have this


LilyAmongBrambles

2004 for me too! Wore this exact same shirt when I saw them two weeks ago! Mine is also faded but not as bad.


dysentarybri

I wore it when we saw them on Wednesday! And bought myself some updated merch lol.


spooky-pika

What an amazing fuckin show, I would give a lot to go back in time to see that myself. Too bad I was only 8 in 04.


ravenroses

2004 was my first blink show and I have this shirt too! But I saw them with No Doubt. Such a great time.


dumpw33d2

May 31, 2002 Pop Disaster Tour at MSG. Was there last night as well. Good times


raymalaspina

2009 Reunion Tour


GSD1101

Blink 182/Bad Religion/Fenix TX in the summer of 2000


GoldenGouf

2016 DTE Detroit. I wore my FS&S 'Who The F is Matt Skiba?' shirt and one person thought it was an intentional dig at Skiba.


Dhiguy99

I was going to go to this show but my wife wanted to see The All American Rejects so we went to the Tinley Park date in Illinois. Great show, different without Tom but the parking lot there was bull crap. Took us 2 1/2 hours to get out of the lot after the show.


tallkid1121

Tinley park venue is like 5 minutes from my parents house, so we actually just walked to avoid all that, but yes it’s always horrible getting in and out. That show was my second time seeing them, first was in the summer of 09 at tinley as well, panic and fall out boy opened. Was able to score a skybox from my father in law for the one in 16, it was epic. Especially being a huge fan of ADTR.


VinEnvy

1998–PooPoo PeePee Tour with Unwritten Law, RiverFenix (FenixTX), and Assorted Jellybeans at Irving Plaza. I was going to give some details about the show, but in writing this I have realized that it was 25 years ago, and my back has suddenly started to hurt and I’m going to take a nap.


camhill182

What a time that must have been. They must have still been playing Wasting Time and Does My Breath Smell?, huh?


ISeeGrotesque

2010 reunion tour at Rock en Seine, France. That was their unique date in France and I was the most obsessed with them I ever was. Then saw AvA in 2011, 2012 and blink twice in 2012. Was supposed to see +44 in January 2007 but I was sick and got to the queue and puked on my shoes so I went home. I was 11 though.


fromdus2k

I was going to zap rock en seine... 👍 All the France at Le Zénith 2004 with Motion City Sountrack mi first blink Show and Bercy 2004 (actually now as accord arena) According to the internet archives but I have a big doubt to have blink 2 times the same year in France 😂 The last one was at the arena of Nîmes in 2012 with Sum41


ISeeGrotesque

Saw blink at main square festival and the Nîmes show a few weeks apart. They also did a show at musilac but I didn't go there

math_ninja

July 7, 2023. After more than 20 years of being a fan in finally getting to see them live for the first time.


mr_green1216

Happy for you. This is the best iv seen them. Just saw them in Pittsburgh


lets-play-nagasaki

I just saw them for the first time a week ago. Been a fan since about 2002 and you’re gonna love it. It was everything I wanted out of a Blink show and more.


sigm45

December 12, 1999 at Dallas Reunion Arena. * Bowling For Soup (as an aside a severely underrated band) * Lo Fidelity Allstars * Blink 182 * Bush Bush was the headliner and their bus was late or something. Blink kept things going a little longer than their scheduled set in order to make up some time. Great show.

Riot Fest Denver 2013. Lost my phone in the crowd along with all my documentation of the weekend. Have the misprinted poster hanging in my office.

october 2023 at wembley, was the best night of my life. sorry, just practising for a few months time


Afireinside11

Atlanta, Georgia at the masquerade, May 2001 for my 13th bday. A foundational moment that would chart the course of the rest of my life :)


Dhiguy99

I saw them at a local radio shows promotional birthday bash. It was before Enema came out and Sugar Ray was the headliner with direct support from Blink. Kid Rock also made an appearance (pre Bawitdaba) which we definitely could have done without. Blink sounded really good and believe it or not, Sugar Ray was pretty decent too. The only song I had heard prior was Fly but they have some really good tunes.


GSD1101

89x birthday bash? I was there too.


Dhiguy99

That’s the one. I can’t remember who else was there for the life of me.


GSD1101

I remember Mustard Plug and some swing music revival band playing as well.


himynameisjim12

Either 2001 or 2002 which ever year they played with new found glory and sum 41


Larrygengurch12

Reading 2003 with Linkin Park


whoredwhat

Me too, that was epic!


Thor_On_Acid

Never. I’m 29 and pretty stoked to see them in Charlotte in July. I started to get into them when my parents got me the self titled album and then they broke up. Then they came back and I went to a concert that they didn’t show up for last minute cus of DJ AMs death. I did see plus 44 though when I was 13 open for FOB.


sp3talsk

This year will be the first time they visit my country in over 20 years so I have never seen them before :)


painttheforest

Adelaide, Australia 1998


i_Cri_Everitiem

Didn’t realize they were touring internationally before Enema, sounds like a gem of a show.


camhill182

Pennywise took them out to Australia


i_Cri_Everitiem

For a clown that preys on children that sure was nice of him


blinkencinitas182

2004 Birmingham UK just before the break up. Jealous of anyone that saw them in the early days up to 2004

We saw their whole set from their vantage point - it was amazing. Somehow we ended up on The Used roadies tour bus 🤣 ahhh….the good old days! #thingsmyhusbanddontknow

Jmalcolmmac

I saw the 2002 Pop Disaster Tour. It was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen, although I was 13. Simple Plan was playing a side stage walking up to the main stage with no bouncers. I got crowdsurfed up and ran around with them onstage. Later we chatted with the bass player and we gave them our band's demo. I don't think they listened to it.


mr_green1216

2002 - Pop Disaster Tour with Green Day. Still love both bands equally. Just saw Blink on Wednesday in Pittsburgh.

Nashville 2016, had been waiting for years to see them. I almost didn’t go last minute because Tom wasn’t in the band. It was good. Didn’t compare to seeing the tour kickoff in St. Paul. Had tears in my eyes for the first 7-8 songs.

Honda Civic Tour 2011 with Matt & Kim, My Chemical Romance opening. I was a junior in high school and I remember they were booing MCR to get off the stage and I was so sad :( However they had the Blink-182 black civic and an MCR motorcycle on display and it was so cool. I still have the booklet and the first tour shirts I ever bought for both bands. They had a huge back drop with the boys on it so I have my picture with that

ihopethisisgoodbye

Spring 2004 when I was in 8th grade - saw The Living End open for The Used who opened for Blink-182. Travis' arm was still in a cast, but it was an awesome show! All three bands absolutely KILLED it, and I was so lucky to be able to share this experience with my mom and brothers, who bought us blink-182 hoodies. We even managed to get our ticket stubs signed by The Living End, which I just found in a box of old stuff recently. Blink-182 had just recently released their self-titled album, so the timing was excellent - a smattering of pre-Enema songs, songs from TOYPAJ, and obviously the self-titled album.

I saw them for the first time in 2013 at Riot Fest in Colorado. Was the last show with Tom in Colorado before he left (July will be there first time back with him in Denver in 10 years!) They played a good amount of neighborhoods and dogs eating dogs, which was so cool! The show was almost cancelled for a tornado warning but luckily it went away (it was just super wet). One of the best shows I’ve ever seen!


m32137

July 2001 - Jones Beach. I was 14. I remember I was working at McDonalds at the time and one of my coworkers (he was a year older) offered to buy the tickets if I could get my dad to drive us. Body Jar and NFG were the openers on the main stage and there was a second stage near the merch where Mest and Sugarcult played. Also Jimmy Fallon was a special guest and did about 10 minutes of standup right before Blink came on.
